I designed this "funny money"
project to put in my son's stockings last Christmas. I  assigned different
"values" the the Mommy money, 1 free chore, 1 dessert
of your choice, 1 meal of your choice, 1 school paper typed,
1 get of of trouble free (those ended up getting ME in trouble!)
etc. You can assign values your children would like and match
their age/interests. This was designed with a Christmas theme
cover, but these can be used for any time of the year and also
as different incentives. I did put a note at the bottom of some
of  them
REQUIRES 24 HR NOTICE so the kids wouldn't spring a chore on
me and NON-TRANSFERABLE so the kids would not start swapping
the coupons, or in our case, sell them to each other!! The download
has the color cover and four sample Mommy Money Bucks - 1 free
chore, 1 meal of choice, 1 dessert of choice and 1 get out of
trouble free. Depending on how many of each coupon you want to
print out, copy and paste each coupon on it's own poster format.
I printed  four
of each coupon on one sheet as seen on the left example. You
can substitute your own picture in the center like I did, or
use the one in the download. I then printed each Mommy buck on
different color paper, so they end up looking just like Monopoly
money! I used a regular weight pastel colored inkjet paper I
bought at Sam's Club in bulk, it was very inexpensive. To make
the coupons easy to rip out you can use a perforator (this is
optional) on the left side as seen below, leaving a left edge
of about 1/25" to staple the book together. Cut the money
out and stack. Print the cover on card stock, along with a blank
piece the same size for the back of the coupon book. Staple together!!
It's so easy - and the kids will love it!
Remember to customize the bucks with
your name on the signature line and your child's name on the
color cover.
